Christmas has long since NOT been a holiday for children!! It further hurts their development and conditions them to want gifts for whatever they do. It was once a family holiday I agree, but it has been twisted into a consumerism driven shopping time, where people by buying Christmas gifts try to make amends for "mistakes" or neglect(for the most part) This video Is in fact A PRECISE DEPICTION OF MODERN CHRISTMAS. Thanks for making it, shared on my FB ;)

@BigBadBampa To be honest, we dont need to guilt people where the reactions we have had mainly find this video amusing and entertaining (if somewhat uncomfortably close to what they already felt). We show a genuine message - equality for mankind. So if 'our' children have a great time, why not all children? And why the blind acceptance of the abuse in the world just for our 'own' fun at the expense of slave labour etc. We appreciate your comments even if you didn't like the style :)

@SoOutThere Understand I am not putting you down for your intentions, just the way you do it. I commend you for wanting to help .But the way you try to guilt people into seeing your point of view is not the way to do it ( imo ofc.) You pick on a holiday that is ment ( mostly ) for children I s'pose you see it as justifying the means to get your message across and not just being a eurocentric putz. Try to put aside the commercialism of christmas and take it in the spirit it's ment

@BigBadBampa We are a production company that wrote the song, produced it, promoted it and created the video. All time and effort were donated 100% (Free) and the mp3 track has had tens of thousands of downloads spread on the Internet including our Mininova torrents distribution - 100% FREE as part of our efforts to make change. Other $ work we have donated FREE - check it out.
BTW I stated we are ALL to responsible but gave example of U.S. as this was in your comment. Thanks.

@BigBadBampa Google: "Gates Puts Cost of Libya Mission at $750 Million" then add up the Iraq war, Afghanistan war and all other costs of war (not hard to get a ball park figure).
We are a group working 100% with a proposal for a new system to support life - equalmoney org as indicated at the end of this video. We are dedicated people who are working to make sure we all have well stocked fridges and lead a dignified life. Please take a look and thanks for your comments here.

@SoOutThere $25 billion per Year
The OECD calculated that (in 2008) the US spent about $25 billion in foreign aid per year ( from wiki ) Pentagon spends $750m on Libya war atrocities ? please post link for that as I have heard nothing about any. what does your country (s) donate ? or you for that matter ? bet you have a well stocked fridge and have a car and such. Gandi you ain't . Do you accept donations ? if so how much goes to the people who need it ? 25% ? Less maybe ?

@BigBadBampa With respect, we are all responsible, but many are excusing themselves. Clearly all donations are not enough, 1 billion are now starving but Pentagon spends $750m on Libya war atrocities... All global leaders are complicit to allow the abuse so let’s stop the blame game.
>Do you feel guilty? I don't.
Clearly not; I feel we need to change systems and don’t excuse myself so readily.
Once we get the entire planet equal then let’s ALL have some fun. This makes sense.

So should feel bad because I was lucky enough to be born in a country where I can live well ? The U.S donates how many million tons of food a year ? not to mention donations from church's schools and others. It's sure as hell not my fault that the leaders in some of the third world are so corrupt that they let the poor starve and pocket the profit they make of selling the aid they get.How dare you have the brass balls to try to shit on my or anyone's holidays ? Do you feel guilty? I don't
@elfling We singled out the most widely used term here in UK - e.g. in the shops and on the media and commonly used which is Christmas. We agree about other religions you mentioned - please go and write your own song, produce a video and promote it for free. We didn't conveniently avoid anything as you say. That is your own trick of invention. Your last line of spite and nastiness shows you up as one of life's ABUSERS - trying to show the world how smart you are. Yawn.

@theH0UNDSofD00M Thank you. The anagram of Satan we addressed in comments below (and 'toyed with' in the rap). We appreciate your comments here.
